most sought after mug? - Collecting Tiki

Let me see if I can clarify it. I started on the premise that most tiki mugs fall under the catagory of "one man's trash is another man's treasure", based on the fact that some people are still picking up mugs from long-closed restaurants for less than $10 in antique shops. This also eliminates Shag mugs which are in the $30+ range in the primary market, and sometimes over $100 in the secondary market. So I was wondering which mugs, which can be found in thrift shops, are generally "must haves"? We don't need to abide by the restaurant mug criteria.
